<p class="MsoNormal">Good afternoon, Extension Faculty!<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Thank you all for completing and submitting your Faculty Portfolios (UA Vitaes/APRs) for calendar-year 2023! The Faculty Portfolio is the official method of record the University uses to capture the body of work for all faculty members.
There were many changes to the platform in recent years which caused lots of confusion. In addition, the overall task can be cumbersome and never at the right time, but it is great to look back and document what was accomplished.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Completing your Faculty Portfolio was the first step in the annual review process. The second part is having your entries reviewed by your peers. This also takes place within the Faculty Portfolio system. When you log in, you can also
access your assigned peer reviews by clicking<b><span style="color:#4472C4"> Evaluations
</span></b>in the left-hand column (see screen shot below).<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">When you click on that link, you will see the peers you’ve been assigned. All your peers have the Agent title in Arizona Cooperative Extension. To view their vitae, click on the eyeball icon. To create an evaluation, click on the Evaluate
button. And to Submit an evaluation, click the box next to their name and hit the
<b>Submit Selected Evaluations</b>. You can save an evaluation to come back at a later time before you actually submit.
<b>NOTE:</b> Given some historical technical issues with the system timing out, it’s recommended to complete the reviews on a Word document and then transfer to the system to avoid loss of work. Attached is the template of the form within the system.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">These are anonymous evaluations and are used by County Extension Directors (CEDs) to help in delivering Annual Reviews for Extension faculty. You are only required to complete three (3) peer reviews and they are
<b><span style="color:red">due Friday, March 8<sup>th</sup>, 2024 at 11:59pm</span></b>.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Please let me know if you have any questions. Below is a screenshot of the platform and how to access.<o:p></o:p></p>
